create-dmg: investigate new compression options

Open ann0see opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Create-DMG has received an update. We should update the scripts and investigate later on if we should also switch to a new compression format. https://github.com/create-dmg/create-dmg/issues/128

I don’t think we can switch the format without breaking backwards compatibility for the legacy build.

#2664 has been merged. Are there any plans to change further options, such as compression formats? If so, what benefits would we expect?

Benefits would be smaller .dmg files for modern versions of macOS. I don't plan to do anything for the upcoming release

Closing as not planned for now
